Matcha yogurt: zesty and smooth, with that same green tea taste.
Avocado yogurt: yes, avocado! It was creamy and surprisingly sweet.
Dim sum: bite‑sized dumplings and buns that are perfect for sharing.
Each dish was different, but together they showed me how creative and exciting Hong Kong food can be.
Different countries can have very different ideas about what "mild" and "hot" mean, so I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered the "hot" level of spice. But I was pleasantly surprised! The soup was definitely spicy, but it was also very tasty and enjoyable. The hot broth brought out all the flavors and made the meal even better. Sharing this delicious meal with my friends made the experience even more special and memorable.
The beef brisket was cooked very slowly in a pot with spices and seasonings. The long cooking time made the meat soft and tender. After the beef was ready, it was added to a bowl of hot noodle soup. The noodles soaked up the tasty broth, and the beef was so soft that it was easy to eat. Because I like spicy food, I chose a spicy version of the soup!
The foods I tried in Hong Kong are connected to the land and sea around the city. The beef noodle soup uses herbs that grow here, and dim sum often has shrimp from nearby waters. Tea is everywhere because it helps people stay cool in the hot weather.
